Abstract: The need for better inspection equipment to reduce inspection time, with non-wear characteristics, is a perpetual and recurrent requirement in fuze and ordnance manufacturing. One significant attempt to improve inspection methods was conceived during the manufacture of the M572 fuze. This was Contract No. DAAA26-76-C-0344, for the development and fabrication of an automated Inspection Machine for Mechanical Time Fuze Components. The inspection machine was constructed in three units. The first and largest unit was made as a complete unit for support of the camera system, X-Y table, viewing stage and automatic handling system. Heavy structural members support a one-inch thick table top which in turn serves as a mount for all mechanical components. The second major unit consists of a rack cabinet to house the Nova 3, Data-General Computer, the Anorad X-Y Table Electronics, the Power Distribution Circuitry and the Cathode Ray Video Monitor. The third unit consists of the input/output station, a model ASR 33 teletype machine.
